    Herd immunity and COVID-19 (coronavirus): What you need to know

    However, there are some major problems with relying on community infection to create herd immunity to the virus that causes COVID-19. First, it isn't yet clear if infection with the COVID-19 virus makes a person immune to future infection.

    We are now in the herd immunity phase of this. In my opinion that is a good thing. People complaining about the positive cases, I don't get. Be concerned about deaths....nothing more. Another good indicator is deaths per hospitalization, as that is an indicator of effectiveness of treatments

    Yes, but that doesn’t promote fear and panic.

    If the article is accurate then a vaccine won’t do any good.
